The frame has a few very minor scuffs - hardly noticeable. One of the lenses has a scratch about 1.5cm on the inside which doesn't affect vision and to see it you have to hold them a certain angle in a bright light. I have the box somewhere but can't find it!

very appropriate that i found this thread. i was about to post a new thread with exactly the same topic. i recently got two x metal ruby pennies but one has purple hues on the lens. different gen or simply a good cut from a good batch? cannot really understand the different generations of the ruby. all i know is that what i do not want is the "fruby." lol:laugh:

ruby doesnt have 'generations'.. its just earlier ruby had more layers of iridium put on it so had a darker hue.. but that extra layering also meant alot of the batch was discarded due to increased errors and flaws.. so they cranked it way down to have a lower discard rate, but also meant less saturated colors on the iridium..
